I would suggest steamed white rice, stir fry (meat or seafood of your
choice) with your favorite vegetables, steamed fish with garlic,
scallion, ginger, oil and soy sauce.

You might be able to google for recipes. I don't have any but remember
these are fairly easy to prepare.

Default Help! Chinese Dinner for Partner...


Just back from 5 years Thailand . Asians have no respect for
human life , poison millions with formaldehyde and MSG and dog
dodo and gasolene in food ....
All stores in BKK had one isle totally dedicated to MSG ( PONGSHUROT)

Westerners dont spend much money on Asian cooking , tastes bad .

So , i'll advise about the 2 types of Soy Sauce .
One i saw in BKK costs 80 cents a liter ! Its similar to MSG , it uses
hydrolysed yeast . Tastes very salty

The other is like Kikomans , it is real Soy sauce , its expensive and
its distilled . best use this type on westerners .


Thai cooking is a mystery , til you live and eat there !
Thai food in the USA is not at all Thai ! It would be impossible
to eat Thai food , here !

Thai food is all oil cooked lean pork , fish ,prawns , rice , eggs ,
cabbage etc
garlic is more common that onion ( garlic and onions are very low
cost in BKK ) .
But Chineese Thai's ( white skinned types) are better cooks .
Food appearance is what matters , not flavor .
Bangkok is the worst , travel east on Teparak road to the factory
villages ( BangPlee ) and get cleaner food and so low cost !
GWeTEaO MU ( Pork , rice noodle soup ) for 25 cents !!
Rice noodles have no flavor (
They dont refrig meat , it hangs in glass cases with the
SeN LeK ( thin rice noodles , SeN YI , wide noodle )
and MaKUaTeT ( Tomatoes)
and (TeNGKWa) light skinned cucumbers .
Strips of red pork , very popular .
Fish balls ( no flavor, "LUK GEEN PLa ) , or LUK GEEN KUNG (
prawn)

Thais can't taste food , hate tomato , especially tomate sauce
on pizza's , you can buy a good tasting pizza in Thailand .
Pizza hut told me they would be out of bus' if they put real
pizza tomato sauce on ...

People who eat hot peppers cant taste food . Their minds are
craving glucose , cant figure what works ,
the small entestine cant assimilate glucose easily .
people who digest lactose and cheese easily ,
are less likely to eat hot peppers ,
for they can get glucose from many foods .

ive tested this many times . I will drink some
half & half and for weeks i'll have lots of brain sugar and
energy and feel very relaxed .
Eat some halapenos and kill all the LAB in the intestines
and start to crave more food .
More because the glucose yield is much lower .
LacticAcidBacteria is very good in your intestines .
it is part of the natural "flora" . Hot peppers kill LAB .

Thais cant understand why the west has peda what evers .

But its tourist , so they sell to the tourist , anything you want .

They dont have a problem with that , there is no law to tell them not

to do it . The govt does rattle its blue sword a bit and shut down

nude places and liquor past 2am , but its only the owners who

are not govt officials who are shut down .

You can do anything if you are a general or a police chief .

Our govt sometimes releases press . Like :

we need a dept of drugs and corruption and prostitution .

They dont understand , we say that , but it would have

to be reworded to be correct .

So if you are east of "10 downing " st , ( presidents house )

you will see a govt building with the most encredible wording .

Something like " The office that fights govt theft and drug peddling
"

Does that sound like a govt admission of guilt , a Fruedian slip ,

or what !!

Actually , thai police dont sell drugs like US cops do , they make

little pay and very little "extra" money . They are really easy to

deal with . They will not take you in for possesion . Give them a

"tip" of $5 and they will smile and wave as you depart .

I thought i might retire to Asia . Big mistake . Mexico is far
easier .

And Mexican police are really nice people , unless you get on the

wrong side of a higher up cop . But thats really hard to do .

Actually i had 2 things i wanted to do in 2000 . I wanted to see

if Asian ladys were less "arguement" than western . Bad idea !

They are just as spoiled . So i dropped idea of marrying Asian .

Food is bad , lest ya cook it yourself .

I would buy 2 kilos of Cashews for $15 ( In China twn 10kilo = $52 )
but quality is worse than here .
70cents kilo for onions , $1 kilo for mushrooms , Green peppers
were $2 kilo , but only at PaK KloNG DaLaT , near the River
and the flower mkt and BaNMo and S. of the Wat PraKeaO
Bus 73 or 8 , or Underground to HUaLaMPoNG , then SW to river
Or back east on Rama 4 til you see 73 goin S on JeLeRNPON he
then turns W on Rama 4 .
But the river taxi is a garantee never to be held up in ROTDiT ( jam
)
I have spent 2 hours on bus 8 near JaTaJaK park !
I buy cheese at FoodLand on LatPraO , but they put formaldehyde
in the very good Australian cheddar ! I had a fight with the manager
after he claimed it was OZ that did it !
Thais put salt in limeaide . They dont know how to cook .
You always make lemonaide with pancake syrup , not white sugar
and it has a bit of salt in it , like when ya start making butterscotch
..
So they figured wrong that too much salt will work good . DUMB !

Asians have a congenital defect , they cant get glucose as well
as westerners , from carbs . 99% can't get brain sugar ( Lactose )
So they crave anything that will up their sugar , nothing works
but desperate ppl will even eat hot peppers , use fish sauce and
vinegar
and cook with wine ( its vinegar , only mo $$$ ) .
The brain will remember anything that raises glucose , but as i said
they cant find it , so they cant taste good food as westerners can .
spagheti sauce ? They hate tomatoes ! They can't taste onions
they cant taste cheese , they cant taste carbs ! like sourdough

Americans and Italians and French and Mexicans , Spanish et al

can taste food , thus good cooks . Asians can not cook .
They cant taste lemon , thus thus use lemon grass and bitter
lime , because they tasted same as when they tasted lemon
in Miami .
They eat hot peppers because they cant taste food !
Those who get the greatest satisfaction from food and flavors
do NOT eat hot peppers , nor vinegar , nor many of the spices
used today , for they cover the good flavor . Hot peppers cover .




they cant apprreciate cheese .

In the interest of improving our entertainment here, let me offer you
some advice for better trolling. Say just one or two really stupid
things and then see if anyone bites. When you write a long screed with
dozens of really stupid things, people will just stop reading out of
boredom. -aem
